But he was also a self-indulgent, self-destructive sad case when it came to his end. And his performances weren't all that great then either. Just because a bunch of 50 and 60 year old female fans are ripping off their panties and throwing them on stage, doesn't mean 'he's still got it!"

He was giving it his all though, but his all wasn't near what it could be because of his lifestyle.

Elvis great performer. Yes. The Beatles, geniuses in many ways. I put a lot of weight into my thoughts based on their ground-breaking time tested creativity.
Dude his first album to this very day cranks
